Der OF the inhabitants took refuge in
a church when the shocks were first
felt. A subsequent and greater
shock demolished the church, and
three hundred Of the people who

ma, Turin and Cosenza. Undula-
tions Of the earth were noticed at

cent, and that no further disturbance

TWO FACTS.

We are not prepared to say
whether it is ignorance of the truth
or preference for Misrepresentation
which induces the Gazette" to
again refer to the S. F. "Chroni-
cle's" statement about the liberty
of the press here, as false. We
glanced over the Chronicle" letter
at the time it arrived here, and al
though we cannot now remember
precisely what it said about the
liberty of the press, and haven't it
at hand for reference, our impress
sion at the time was that the
"Chronicle" had come pretty close
to the truth--much closer than the
Gazette" in its denial. That the
meaning the Cabinet
Ministers--has ever attempted any
censorship of the press, or even
desired any curtailment of its liber-
ties, is TO the best of our knowledge
and belief false; but an irrespon-
sible combination of men outside of
the Government has undoubtedly
attempted to muzzle free newspaper
utterance. 1t has operated and
threatened to operate on the line of
"Boycot." Here are two facts for
the Gazette to get around the
best best way it can: First-when
the "P. c. Advertiser" was writing
vigorously against 'machine poll
ties" a few weeks before the cleo
tons, nearly every local advertise
mcnt in its columns was ordered
out, through the instigation Of the
irresponsible combination above re-
ferred to. Second-the DAILY Bull
LETIN was distinctly threatened with
precisely the same thing, by a gen.
tleman of the same combination,
who stated that the "word had
passed along the line," unless the
editor should exercise great care
respecting the correspondence which
he admitted into his paper.
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1887-10-05

annexation to the United States, the
latest fad of the malcontents." Poor
deluded "Gazette!" What q pity
your hands are tied by a subsidy
from the party you represent, so
that it becomes impossible for you
to publish an article commenting
upon the BULLETIN without distort-
ing the facts out of all recognition.
We have strongly opposed annexa-
ton to the United States or any
other power, in any form whatever
also any concessions of territory to
any individual state or power; but
the present Administration, not the
indictments, MS we have learned
from reliable authority, are now
negotiating for cession of territory
to the United States; and it only
remains to be seen what interpreta-
ton the Washington Government
puts upon q certain clause in the
Reciprocity Treaty whether the
concession shall be made or not.
1t is therefore evident that the
"ruin" that the Gazette" declares
the BULLETIN is bringing about is
being rapidly contaminated by the
parties who hold the power Of utter
ance over that paper.

A QUERY.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-Can you an
swer the following question for the
benefit of all concerned:
Why are tenders not invited for
prison supplies in open market and
the contract awarded to the lowest
responsible bidder? The contract
expired September 9TH last.
No one dealer should acquire an
undue advantage over another,
which certainly obtains at present.
We are all taxpayers, with equal
rights and desire to have everything
open and above board and fair to
all. FAIRPLAY.

GAZETTE MISREPRESENTATION.

The "Gazette's" two-c0lumn lead
ing article to-day shows that we
have trodden heavily upon its corns.
Instead of saying that the BULLETIN
sis entirely too innocent for this
world" it should have said that the
BULLETIN is entirely too outspoken
and candid in trying to expose cor
ruption in high places; that it
should be more careful in selecting
its correspondence and articles from
exchanges as those now used injure
our cause by showing the people
what is going on under the cloak of
reform. This would have been can
dld on the part of the Gazette"
Further quoting from the "Ga-
zette:" "Agaip instead of the mem
bers of the Rifles being given the
preference in filling public offices,
the facts are very much to the con-
trary." Let us see to what extent
the truth of this assertion can be
substantiated, first, Private l.. A.
Thurston, made Minister Of the In
terror; Capt. c. W. Ashford At
torney-G General; Major H. F. Heb
bard, Road Supervisor in Chief for
the Island of Oahu; and as there
was but one Doctor belonging to the
organization, who is shortly to leave
the Kingdom, it became the bounden
duty to give members of that pro-
fession, who were conspicuous wire
pullers in the late campaign, a
chance at the Government teat, as
witness the appointment of DR..
Emerson to be President of the
Board of Health-'though in justice
to the Doctor we should state that
there is no salary attached to the
office. DR.. Tucker to be physician
to the Insane Asylum, vice DR..
Webb, removed; and DR.. Rogers,
physician to the Jail vice Brodie.
The other appointments under the
new regime have been w. L. Green,
Minister of Finances Godfrey
Brown, Minister of Foreign Affairs
Mr.. Jonathan Austin, Registrar of
Conveyances; and Mr.. Ashley
brother-in to Major II. +. Heb
bard, as Secretary of the Board OF
Health. vice Mr.. Roche, removed.
So that out OF tan principal appoint
ments made since the Inauguration
Of the new regime, we have three ac-
tive members of the Rifles, three
active members of the Leage,
and one relative Of a prominent
officer of the Rifles and presumably |
a Lacquer, holding Government posi-
tions. IL this is not discrimination
in favor of the Rifles and their i'm |
mediate supporters we fail to COM
prehend the meaning Of the word. |
Again, the Gazette" says: "It
IS proper to call attention, further
